According to a method of operating a data processing system, one or more monitoring parameter sets are established in a processing unit within the data processing system. The processing unit monitors, in hardware, execution of each of a plurality of schedulable software entities within the processing unit in accordance with a monitoring parameter set among the one or more monitoring parameter sets. The processing unit then reports to software executing in the data processing system utilization of hardware resources by each of the plurality of schedulable software entities. The hardware utilization information reported by the processing unit may be stored and utilized by software to schedulable execution of the schedulable software entities reported by the processing unit. The hardware utilization information may also be utilized to generate a classification of at least one executing schedulable software entity, which may be communicated to the processing unit to dynamically modify an allocation of hardware resources to the schedulable software entity.

The present invention relates to transparent flavor microemulsions containing sugar ester of fatty acids. Formulations of clear, thermodynamically stable and concentrated oil-in-water microemulsions are disclosed, comprising a surfactant system which is formed of a sugar ester of a fatty acid together with lecithin, as well as their use for the flavoring of clear beverages.

Disclosed is a control system for a hydrogen addition internal combustion engine that uses hydrocarbon fuel and hydrogen gas as combustion fuel. The control system includes a canister (52) for adsorbing fuel vapor generated in a tank (34) for storing the hydrocarbon fuel; a purge VSV (66) for purging the fuel vapor into an intake port (18) of the hydrogen addition internal combustion engine in a predefined situation; hydrogen addition ratio setup means for setting the ratio of hydrogen gas addition to the hydrocarbon fuel; and hydrogen gas addition ratio adjustment means for increasing the ratio of hydrogen gas addition when the fuel vapor is purged into the intake port (18).

The present invention provides a semiconductor device realizing improved adhesion between a low-dielectric-constant material and a semiconductor material. The semiconductor device includes, on a semiconductor layer, an adhesion layer and a low-dielectric-constant material layer in order from the semiconductor layer side. The adhesion layer has a projection / recess structure, and the low-dielectric-constant material layer is formed so as to bury gaps in the projection / recess structure.

Two sections (2) which are to be glued together are laid next to each other transversely on a machine. The chassis (21) of the machine (20) carries means of supporting the band; means of pressing against the side of the band that is not glued to apply it to a surface between the means of support and a heater (30) to activate the glue. A continuous process of sticking together a band to form a watertight and insulating wall, using rectangular panels containing layers of impermeable material. Two adjacent panels are stuck together using a flexible band containing at least one fine metallic layer by continuous application of polymerizable or thermofusible glue to the band or the panels; continuous pressing of the band against the adjacent edges and continuous heating of the band in contact to activate the glue, before or after the pressing action. In addition a final cooling stage solidifies the glue. The glue can be applied to the band as it is stuck to the panels, or if thermofusible glue is used, it can be applied at a temperature at which it is fluid, before the band is cooled and wound onto a bobbin. The band can then be unrolled, heated to a second temperature less than or equal to the first to reactivate the glue as it is pressed continuously onto the panel edges. Independent claims are included for; (1) The machine (20) has a tubular chassis (21) with at least two longitudinal elements (22) connected to each other by at least one transverse element (23, 24). Rollers (26) are connected to the chassis along its longitudinal axis (L) so they roll against the surface (14) of two sections (2) which are to be glued together. The band is held by at least two longitudinal retaining pieces parallel to the axis of rotation of the rollers, with the active parts of the retaining pieces extending transversely outside the machine. The machine is automobile, with the chassis including a drive motor (84). The drive mechanism includes rollers (85) placed along the longitudinal axis near the means holding the band, with the rollers driven in rotation by the drive motor about an axis of rotation perpendicular to that of the rollers (26). The drive rollers can be moved between an active position against the walls (10) and a retracted position away from the walls. This movement is controlled by engaging and disengaging with longitudinal grooves (13). The heater is placed between the longitudinal elements, where the band is received, so it can heat the band using at least one resistance (32) and a ventilation system (33) which blows air across the resistance to form a flow of hot air towards the band. The heater can be placed upstream of the glue applicator (68) to speed the polymerisation of the glue. In this case, the heater is a temperature-controlled hot iron. Glue is applied to one side of the band (8) between the longitudinal elements. The band is held by a pressing roller whose distance in plan from the chassis is variable and which is designed to press the band against the glued surface. Coolers are mounted on the chassis between the longitudinal elements downstream of the heaters and glue application to accelerate the curing process; and (2) Insulating and watertight wall made using this process and / or machine.

A system for receiving traffic information from a toll gate server to provide route guidance to a driver of a vehicle and a method thereof are provided. The traffic information receiving-routing selecting system includes a toll fee information communication system and a path guide terminal. The toll fee information communication system is configured to communicate with a toll gate server to pay a toll fee when a vehicle approaches to a toll gate, and request traffic information to the toll gate server according to a traffic information request signal to receive the traffic information from the toll gate server. The path guide terminal is configured to generate and transmit the toll fee request signal to the toll fee information communication system when the toll fee information communication system pays a toll fee, receive the traffic information from the toll fee information communication system to guide a path or convey a traffic situation.
